| Obverse description | Central square hole (穿) surrounded by a raised square rim, flanked on the left by a Manchu/Mongolian script character (ᠪᠣᠣ, 'Boo') and on the right by the Chinese character 癸 (gui), rendered in regular script (楷書). The field is plain and unadorned. This reverse-style layout displaying only the mint and cyclical characters flanking the central perforation follows the traditional Qing cash coin convention for the reverse, here appearing on what is designated the obverse of this fantasy piece. |
